Happy #DraculaDay ! Years ago on a trip to Toronto, I visited the public library's Merril Collection of Science Fiction, Speculation & Fantasy. First thing I asked to see was their first edition of Dracula. The librarian said, "of course, but I warn you that it is disappointing". Somehow for me it only adds to the charm of this hot mess of a book that the original cover was mustard yellow

“[Mike] Shepherd… believes the author deliberately pinpointed Cruden Bay, north of Aberdeen—then called Port Erroll, a small fishing village with a sandy beach & a windswept cliff-top fort named Slains Castle—as a retreat where he could concentrate on his writing”

@jmcrookston The name Dracula means “son of Dracul.” In the Romanian language today, dracul means “the devil”—drac is “devil,” ul is “the”—but it is derived from the Latin dracō, “dragon.” (Dragons have been historically associated with Satan, hence the evolution.)

It's Dracula Day, so I was thinking about vampires and came up with a title for a story, "Requiem for a Vampire". But it turns out, that title has been used already - in one case for the French horror film "Requiem pour un Vampire" (from 1972) and in the other case, for another horror film (from 2006) in English, which has a very low rating on IMDB.

#OTD in 1897. First publication of Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Let's celebrate #DraculaDay!
The novel was mostly written in the 1890s, and Stoker produced over a hundred pages of notes, drawing extensively from folklore and history. He probably found the name "Dracula" in Whitby's public library while on holiday, selecting it because he thought it meant 'devil' in Romanian.

The Scottish anthropologist who inspired Dracula
“More decidedly evil is the nosferatu, or vampire, in which every Roumanian peasant believes as firmly as he does in heaven or hell…”
—from Emily Gerard’s THE LAND BEYOND THE FOREST: Facts, Figures, & Fancies from Transylvania (1888). Her work was a key part of Bram Stoker’s research materials for Dracula.
Today, 26 May, is Dracula Day 🧛♂️

#ScribesAndMakers 5/26. Who's your favourite vampire?
Don't make me choose. 😅 Dracula (especially his portrayal in the film "Bram Stoker's Dracula"), as well as the vampires Louis, Lestat, Claudia and Armand from the Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice. But I have to admit, I even like the TV series adaptation more, which I am currently watching.
